[Verse 1]
[G]Emi[Bm]ly's [G]pa[C]ges[G][D][G]
[Bm]spread on a winter's [C]af ternoon
[G]Emily's sewing see[Bm]s her
love going [C]from [D]her room
And [G]through the [D]glass, his [G]coat of [C]black
[G]She knows he's [D]never
com[G]ing [Bm]back[C]
[G]Afraid of the fire,
she [D]hides her desire in [Em]po e[D]try[C]
[G]Bound in white hair,
[D]these are the words of
[Em]Emily[D][C][G][D][C][Am]
[G]Emily's pages, [Bm]letters of [G]longing,
[Bm]none[C] can see[G]
Nobody's asking,
[Bm]Emily [G]passing
[C]Cal[D]vary
And [G]dressed in [D]white, [G]behind the [C]door
[G]Where love no longer [D]must
[G]come [Bm]no mo[C]re
Dress[G]ing of flowers,
[D]filling the hours with [Em]po et[D]ry[C]
[G]Love unrequited, [D]these are the words of
[Em]Emily[D]

[Verse 2]
Heav[G]enly's pages,
[Bm]lines on the [G]dying [Bm]lines [C]of gre[G]ed
Wings in the weather,
[Bm]hope is the feather [C]on the [D]leaf
And [G]stitch and [D]sew, and [G]stitch and [C]sew
[G]On cloths [D]of night, her [G]bright dreams go
[C]To mee[G]t with our lovers under[D]
the covers [Em]over [D]the sea[C]
[G]In a slow reader, [D]these are the words of
[Em]Emily[D][C]
[G]In a slow reader, [D]these are the words of
[Em]Emily[D][G]
